PROGRESSIVES LOVE for AMERICA – Part
One

When is the last time you have heard a Progressive say, “I
love America”?No, no—I’m not asking
when you last heard a Progressive say that he is “just as patriotic as (fill
in the blank) is”.When did you last
hear someone who wears the designation ‘Democrat’ say, unashamedly and without
embarrassment, “I love America”?

While you are thinking about that, let me recount a few
nuggets for you which provide fairly conclusive proof, as far as I’m concerned,
that many of the Progressive leaders, and by implication, their followers as
well, do not love and respect this country.I’ll cite a few examples from the Democrat administration before this
one.

Wall
Street Journal 4/14/98 Editorial
"…President Clinton approved the transfer of missile guidance technology
to China at the behest of the largest personal contributor to the Democratic
Party. He granted the needed waiver despite an ongoing Department of Justice
criminal investigation of the same company's earlier transfer of similar
technology: a Pentagon study concluding that in the earlier episode
"United States national security has been harmed." That is the
essence of a report yesterday by Jeff Gerth of the New York Times (who also
reported the original Whitewater story in 1992) concerning satellite launch
technology provided by Loral Space and Communications and Hughes Electronics, a
subsidiary of General Motors. Loral Chairman Bernard L. Schwartz topped the
personal contributions list in 1997; his 1994 trip to China with Commerce
Secretary Ron Brown was quickly followed by a memo to the President from Harold
Ickes saying Mr. Schwartz "is prepared to do anything he can for the
Administration." Lobbying jointly with Hughes Chairman C. Michael
Armstrong, who has gone on to head AT&T, Mr. Schwartz succeeded in
softening licensing requirements for export of guidance technology to
China…."

4/19/99 Timothy Maier "…But Clinton and
Gore have much explaining to do. Both knew about the Los Alamos espionage in
1995, yet they continued to entertain Chinese generals by allowing them to tour
nuclear facilities and gladly received financial donations from Beijing and its
friends. A year after the theft of nuclear secrets was discovered, instead of
exposing the spies, Clinton made it easier for Beijing agents. He transferred
licensing requirements from the (Department of) State to the sales-oriented
Commerce Department. This accelerated the pace at which Beijing obtained
dual-use technology to build nuclear weapons and missiles... Next came the most significant damage to U.S.
security since the days of the Rosenbergs (convicted in 1951 of selling nuclear
secrets to the Soviets). Dr. Wah Lim, then a Loral Space and Communications
scientist, headed a team of scientists studying Beijing's rocket failures when
he called his assistant to fax to China a sensitive accident-analysis report
that intelligence agents say greatly enhanced the accuracy of Beijing's
missiles.….."For the longest time U.S. analysts on China have emphasized
how small China's nuclear forces have been and how they have remained that
way," says (Henry) Sokolski, (a former Pentagon nonproliferation
official).Not any more!!!

According to reports, on February 6, 1996, a Chinese long march rocket,
carrying a $200 million Loral satellite, exploded shortly after lift-off from a
satellite launch center in China. Loral and the Hughes Corporation went to work
on an accident review for the insurance companies that insured that flight and
the loss of Loral’s equipment.

First of all, we need to understand that it is illegal for American
corporations to transfer weapons and rocket technology to a foreign company,
period.Hughes and Loral used the excuse
of helping with an accident investigation that involved only the blow-up of a Chinese
rocket, with which they had no involvement—not the malfunction of a
satellite system which sat atop that rocket. Hughes and Loral should not have
been involved in this matter. By the way, a secret coded circuit board was
missing from the American (Loral) satellite aboard that Chinese rocket when it
was recovered.Congress suspects that
China stole it.Or did Loral give that circuit board to China?We’ll never know.This was a very important circuit board for
guidance systems; advanced technology far above China’s capability.

The Chinese Government, once Loral and Hughes jumped into analyzing what had
gone wrong with this launch, requested
Chinese-born Loral executive Dr. Wah Lim be put in charge of this
accident investigation. Loral complied with this request, and replaced an experienced
American U.S. Air Force Colonel, who was at that time responsible for launch
security, with Dr. Lim, per request.One
wonders what justification there could be for that change.

In May 1996, the 200-page accident review that dealt with this rocket's
performance was finished.Remember, this had nothing to do with Loral’s
satellite. It had to do with the explosion of the rocket. This report,
which was in reality a blueprint of everything that had gone wrong with the
rocket and how to correct it, was unlawfully faxed directly to the Chinese
Communists by an assistant acting upon directions from Dr. Lim--without either a
State Department or Defense Department approval.Interesting question:Did Bernard L. Schwartz obtain President
Clinton’s approval before allowing Dr. Lim to send that extraordinary blueprint
to the Chinese Communists? Remember, Schwartz is the man Harold Ickes told
Clinton “would do anything he can for the Administration”.

One year later, when the Pentagon completed an assessment of what had
happened regarding the report supplied to the Chinese, they concluded, quote
`The United States national security has been harmed,' end of quote.Really?

Now millions of Americans live under the threat of being incinerated by a
nuclear weapon launched at the United States from China—made more accurate and
more reliable by our own aerospace industry.

Of course, the fact that Schwartz was the largest single contributor to the
Clinton/Gore campaign did not influence in any way Clinton’s decision to allow
this technology transfer to China; of that I am confident—aren’t you?I’m equally positive that the Chinese asked
for nothing in exchange for the millions that their government officials,
military officers and business leaders contributed to the Clinton presidential
campaign (see below).Is it just
possible that money from China was a pay-off for the technology that Clinton
allowed them to obtain from the U S?Oh,
and even Chinese Buddhist nuns got into the act, contributing at least $45,000 to the
campaign in a fund-raiser in California attended by Al Gore.The nuns destroyed the record of
contributors—to avoid “embarrassment”—but did admit that at least $45,000 was
raised and turned over to Gore.

I’m sure that the Chinese would have stolen . . . Oops! . . . would have
obtained that information through their own research in another 20 to 30 years,
so what’s the big deal? What if their
nuclear-tipped rockets can now reach many of the cities on our western
shore?I’m positive that President
Clinton made the Chinese promise not to launch weapons toward the western
United States—at least, not until he left office.

How much did the Chinese contribute to the Clinton campaign?What follows is only a partial listing, which
three (3) separate investigations—by the Justice Department (under Attorney General Janet Reno),
a House Committee and a Senate committee turned up, but . . .

1) Charlie Trie, Arkansan, born in Taiwan, contributed $450,000 to Clinton
Defense fund.2) Johnny Chung, also Taiwanese,
delivered to the White House $300,000 he told Congress came from a Chinese
General named Liu Chaoying of Chinese aero-space. 3)John Huang, born in China,
raised $3.4 million for the Clinton campaign.AFTER the campaign, half had to be returned.4)Maria Hsai, Taiwanese, raised $100,000 at a
Buddhist Temple in California for the Clintoncampaign; delivered hand-to-hand to Al Gore, who said he didn’t know the
affair he attended was a fund-raiser.

This is only the pocket change.How
much did the campaign raise from foreign sources?That may never be known.

Let me ask you:Does President
Clinton have a deep and abiding love for America?Answer: Not nearly as great a love as he has
for himself. His perfidy in allowing the Chinese to purchase that advanced
guidance and weapons technology placed millions of West Coast American’s lives
at risk. It would have taken Communist China twenty or thirty years to have
discovered on their own what we sold them—for what?For the many millions of dollars that the
Chinese contributed, through one source or another, to insure Bill Clinton’s
victory in the presidential race. No, one doesn’t sell out a country and a
people he loves.Even for the sake of
his political career.

Folks, it’s all about being re-elected—period.No matter the cost.Regardless of who has to pay the price.
Progressives do whatever they have to do to win. Apparently, you can even
rationalize treasonous acts in your quest to maintain yourself in office.In the minds of Progressives, the Chinese and
Russians are not nearly as dangerous to the future of our country as are our
own nation’s conservatives.

Can our nation continue to exist with this kind of deep division and
betrayal?
